Accumulate Health Dr. Matt Angove

In today's podcast, I'm talking about why do we not do what we know to do? I see this play out time after time in my office. Eating real whole foods is not some new health concept, so why do we struggle to start and then stick with a whole foods eating routine?
The first barrier is procrastination.
The second barrier is a fear of failure.
The third barrier is we do not clearly understand the value or capacity of food to transform our life.
The fourth barrier is my genes.
The fifth barrier is pain. Only you have to live in your body. Only you have to experience your body. Nobody else has to endure the joint pain, the knee replacement, the lightheadedness, the migraines, the anxiety and depression.
Accept that being different is the better way. Search out the community of people who want to experience the best their body and mind can offer.

In today's episode, I'm talking about the 5 signs of excess sugar consumption. And by sugar, I mean added sugars in ultra processed foods and flours that come from refined grains.
A refined grain is a grain that has had the bran and germ removed (fiber, vitamins, minerals) with only the starchy endosperm left over. This would be most cereals, crackers, pastas, pizza dough, pastries and bread products.
It is going to take consistent vigilance on your part and simply being okay with eating different than the person next you. You will not be normal, but you will be creating massive health opportunity for yourself and your family.

In today's episode, I'm talking about fluoride. Is fluoride a necessity in mouthwash, toothpaste and our water supply?
Here are 5 things to consider before making fluoride a part of your routine:
Fluoride inhibits the thyroid stimulating hormone output from the pituitary gland. Without a strong signal to the thyroid to make thyroid hormones, T4 and T3 production decrease. Fluoride is much lighter and more reactive than iodine, so it easily displaces iodine in the body.  Fluoride inhibits multiple antioxidant enzymes and lowers glutathione levels. Fluoride exposure leads to cell membrane degeneration and decreases the lifespan of red blood cells. Fluoride depletes our body of energy. Whether we are talking about the thyroid, glutathione, iron or straight up depleting ATP production by inhibiting the enzyme ATPase.  --------

A couple of weeks ago I discussed the Dirty Dozen and today I'm talking about the Clean 15.
Listen to the episide here - The Dirty Dozen and Pesticide Exposure 
These are fruits and vegetables that are considered to be the least problematic in regards to pesticides. However, if you have the means I would still buy them organic as the bioaccumulation of toxins is really at the root of so many illnesses.
The foods with the least amount of pesticide residues in 2024 according to the Environmental Working Group are:
avocados sweet corn onions papaya carrots honeydew melon asparagus pineapples sweet peas (frozen) watermelon cabbage sweet potatoes mangoes mushrooms kiwi Papaya are often genetically modified, so even though they may be low in pesticides, it is still best to get them organic.

In today's episode, I'm sharing about how one of my patients got rid of fatigue, muscle aches, bladder infections, and mood swings by changing their diet. This patient was a vegetarian but she wasn’t eating vegetables, fruit, nuts, seeds and beans, instead she was eating processed foods, and lots of carbs.
No matter what type of diet or lifestyle you're following, if it doesn't include real, whole foods, then it's not supporting your health. It may support weight loss or some other goal, but not optimal health and vitality. 
Could your health be a diet adjustment away from experiencing energy and vitality?

In today's episode, I'm talking about the fruits and veggies you want to buy organicif you want to avoid excess pesticide exposure.
The following whole foods have the highest levels of multiple pesticides.
Peaches,nectarines Grapes Strawberries Cherries Spinach Apples Brussel sprouts  Cucumbers Tomatoes Apricots Lettuce Bean pods Consuming these otherwise health promoting foods in a non-organic form can increase the risk of cancer, neurological disorders, hormone imbalance (PCOS, endometriosis), and reproductive problems (infertility, fetal death, birth defects). That's why it's important to buy organic.
The only exception is if your are buying them from a trusted, local source that doesn't use pesticides. The benefits of the fruit or vegetables do not outweigh the toxicity of the chemicals.
